pretty sick video.

**Rockefela** · 03-25-2009, 08:45 PM

Other than the incar stuff of him just cruising around in the Porsche I didn't see anything he specifically did. There was alot of decent drifting at the beginning but it doesn't specifically say if he's doing any of the drifting...

Cool video though.

anyone can drive with enough practice...and trust he gets enough practice from movie sets and just his personal time. not to mention enough professionals surrounding him. Movies are a lot more than just effects even if thats whats shown in the final cut, most racing movies nowadays give the actors hardcore racing lessons....like ItalianJob...and that sexy lil blonde did the best outa all over them

he doesn't own a skyline and other cars just to say he can, all jokes aside, there is a lot more substance to him than his punk persona

**Rockefela** · 03-25-2009, 08:53 PM

I don't doubt he could be a pretty good driver. He's gone through alot of pro driving schools for some of the movies he's done. Also by the looks of this video it seems like he enjoy's hitting the track for some fun once in a while which helps. Cool to see he's more interested in racing than just messing around in movies.

He also did curb wreck one of the skylines while shooting F&F2 trying to drift it around a corner in downtown Miami.

One of the Scandalous R34's that Motorex imported for him. I don't know if this R34 is the same one in 4 or if its a Kazio R34.

If he can drive well which he very well may be able to, this video is certainly not evidence of it.

**Stolle** · 03-26-2009, 12:48 AM

no.

but on the same lines.

u havent posted videos of your driving? is that to say that you dont know how to drive also? touche.

i know its not proof.

seems like he caught the driving bug tho for sure since he did all these driving movies

**hkysk8r07** · 03-26-2009, 12:58 AM

i see him around town all the time. usually in a black denali or a grey audi a6 avant or something. saw him in a red muscle car last week though.

he's got a R34, F 360, and something else too

I seem to recall reading or seeing that he was a pretty serious car nut before the whole "F&F" thing.

**CrUziN4L** · 03-26-2009, 10:06 AM
